The Help2Care e-Health platform was developed in order to capacitate infor-mal caregivers with digital, multimedia training materials. Health professionals select these materials according to the needs of the homebound patients under the supervision of these caregivers. In turn, caregiver can then use their smartphones to consult and apply the care procedures illustrated by these materials. In this paper, we pr...
O presente estudo reporta a citologia de uma mulher de 66 anos, que apresenta um epitélio atrófico com fundo inflamatório. Identificaram-se agregados tridimensionais de células glandulares com sobreposição celular, anisocariose, aumento nuclear, hipercromasia moderada, presença de nucléolos e cromatina grosseira, irregularmente distribuída. O diagnóstico citológico foi de células glandulares atípicas sem outra ...
In recent years, arthroscopic and arthroscopically assisted techniques have been increasingly used to reconstruct the lateral ligaments of the ankle. Besides permitting the treatment of several comorbidities, arthroscopic techniques are envisioned to lower the amount of surgical aggression and to improve the assessment of anatomic structures. We describe our surgical technique for arthroscopic, two-portal ankle...
Objetivo: a deformidade em supinação por paralisia obstétrica do plexo braquial (POPB) é atualmente rara e resulta de um desequilíbrio muscular entre pronadores e supinadores. A deformidade é progressiva e disfuncional e, quando a redução passiva é possível, o redireccionamento lateral do tendão distal do bíceps está indicado. Na deformidade fixa do antebraço a membrana interóssea deve ser libertada. Este estud...
The increasing problem of antibiotic resistance in common pathogenic bacteria and the concern about the spreading of antibiotics in the environment bring the need to find new methods to control fish pathogens. Phage therapy represents a potential alternative to antibiotics, but its use in aquaculture requires a detailed understanding of bacterial communities, namely of fish pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, in th...
